Association of postural control with muscle strength, proprioception, self-reported knee instability and activity limitations in patients with knee osteoarthritis KU Leuven
OBJECTIVE: To determine the association of postural control with muscle strength, proprioception, self-reported knee instability and activity limitations in patients with knee osteoarthritis. METHODS: A total of 284 patients with knee osteoarthritis from the Amsterdam Osteoarthritis cohort were included. Postural control was assessed using the One-Leg Stand Test (OLST), in which the patients were asked to stand on one leg for 30 s. Muscle ...

Phase-dependent changes in local dynamic stability during walking in elderly with and without knee osteoarthritis KU Leuven
Previously, we reported reduced time-averaged knee local stability, in the unaffected, but not the affected leg of elderly with knee osteoarthritis OA compared to controls. Since stability may show phase-related changes, we reanalyzed the dataset reported previously using time-dependent local stability, λ(t), and also calculated time-averaged local stability, λs, for comparison. We studied treadmill walking at increasing speeds, focusing on ...
The role of the deep medial collateral ligament in controlling rotational stability of the knee KU Leuven
PURPOSE: The tibial insertion of the deep medial collateral ligament (dMCL) is frequently sacrificed when the proximal tibial cut is performed during total knee arthroplasty. The role of the dMCL in controlling the knee's rotational stability is still controversial. The aim of this study was to quantify the rotational laxity induced by an isolated lesion of the dMCL as it occurs during tibial preparation for knee arthroplasty. METHODS: An ...
ACL repair with a single or double tunnel : a comparative laboratory study of knee stability using computer navigation KU Leuven
The purpose of the study was to investigate the biomechanical differences between single bundle (SB), single tunnel-twisted hamstring graft (ST-TG) and double bundle (DB) reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), using computer navigation for data acquisition. Anterior translation in the medial compartment was corrected to near normal levels at 30 degrees and 90 degrees with all techniques. Anterior translation in the lateral ...
